I surfed for the first time in the Summer of 2004 at Praia do Amado, in Algarve.
In November of the same year, I enrolled at Surf Academy and since then I continued to surf.
I had as coach Pedro “Pecas” Monteiro and João “Massas” Macedo and participated in several competitions, having won some regional and national competitions, eg.: Portuguese Cup, National Circuit of Groms, National Pro Junior, Regionals, etc.
My favorite waves are Carcavelos, Coxos, Crazy Left, Lagide, L-Point and Supertubos.
I have travelled a lot for surfing around Portugal and also to Spain, Basque Country, France, Morocco, Senegal, Peru, Ecuador and California.
